Knitting My Sanity Away

Hey guys, I'm sorry I haven't been around recently. I've been ill and really busy and that! But I'm back now, for a while anyway!

So I just wanted to show you this, it's a knitting project I started! This is actually one of the first knitted projects I've done.





It's hopefully going to be a mug hug when it's done. Although I don't like the colour so I have no idea what I'm going to do with it.

But the reason this has driven me insane is because I have started and had to leave it so many times it's unreal! I didn't want to start again at one point but I did and I'm happy because it's going alright this time!

Okay, well I just wanted to tell you about my wedding sampler cross stitch that I'm doing (see the post below for more info)! It's going really well except for the fact I've run out of one colour! But once I get that next week I should be able to finish it as I don't have that much left to do!

Okay, well I think that's all I have to show/tell you today! Sorry for the rubbish photos, they were taken in a dark room on my phone. Oh by the way, I'm going on holiday tomorrow for two weeks. (I think) I'll try to drop by at some point, but I probably won't be able to, So I'll see you when I get back.

Thanks for visiting my blog :) xx

H is for... Hearts

Hey guys :) This week for my "Learn you ABCs" I wanted to show a project I started on Saturday! And it will have quite a few hearts on it by the time I'm finished! 

Here it is:


What do you think? It's Wedding Sampler for my cousin who is getting married! I have to have it finished by August, but since I've got the biggest part of it done I'm hoping I'll be able to do it.

It's a fun project, but I'm finding the border quite hard as there's a lot of colour changes! And there's still another bigger border to do that's just the same, and I'm really not looking forward to it! =/ But other than that, I'm having a lot of fun making it! I just hope I'll have it done by August...

So anyway, that was my letter of the alphabet for today! Join me again on Wednesday, when I'll show the rest of my projects on the go, but for now head over to Charlie's Blog for more "H Is for ..." Posts :D Thanks!

P.S. Thank you for all the comments you left me on Friday, I really appreciate it! x

FO Friday!

 Good Morning! Welcome, to my post for my finished projects! I have two to show you today!

First up is an All Our Yesterday's picture I've done!

It was a free chart with one of the latest The World Of Cross Stitching (Hm.. I seem to do a lot of charts from that!)

Okay, second up is one I showed you on Wednesday! I got him finished last night after starting in April!


My mum got me the colours I need for finishing him off! I'm so glad I've finally finished, I'll be able to hang it up in my room! :D

Well, that's all! Hope you enjoyed this post, head over to Tami's Blog and check out some other finished projects, see ya! :D x

Work-in-Progress Wednesdays!

Hey guys! :D Welcome to my first Work-in-Progress Wednesdays! (Or WIPW) So head over to Tami's blog for more WIPWs! Okay, shall we crack on with the post?

Okay, first up is my large project! So large, it's taken about a year already just to get to this point, and I'm no where near finishing! Oh well...


What do you think? It's called Happy Hearts, and it's from issue 163 of The World Of Cross Stitching. As soon as I saw it in the magazine, I knew I HAD to do it! Okay, moving on, to my other work in progress!
Isn't he just adorable? Even though he has no face yet! I've run out of the colours I need, so it might be a while before I get to finish him! This pattern is called Potty About Bubble! And that's from issue 86 of The World Of Cross Stitching. I'm hoping to finish it soon, so as soon as I have I shall show you!

Okay, this has nothing to do with a WIP, I just wanted to show it to you! It's a Tatty Teddy stamp kit that was a present from my Aunty!

What do you think? You may see some things involving this stamp in the near future! :)

Okay, well, thank you for stopping by! I'll see you on Friday where I'll show you some cross stitches I've finished recently! Oh and tomorrow I'll be doing some cooking, so I might show you that as well tomorrow night!

See ya soon,

Abby xx
